In this post, I will show you How To Set Timezone in Laravel application.

By default, Laravel uses the UTC timezone. For Indian users, we can set the timezone to `Asia/Kolkata`. There are two ways to configure the timezone:

How To Set Timezone in Laravel Example

Example 1: Update timezone from .env file

.env

APP_TIMEZONE="Asia/Dhaka"

Example 2: Update timezone from config file

You can directly change timezone from config file like the following way:

config/app.php

'timezone' => 'Asia/Dhaka',

You can test it with the following route code:

Route::get('/', function () {
    dd(now());
});

You will see the output like this way:

Illuminate\Support\Carbon @1733495164 {#278 â–¼ // routes/web.php:11
  #endOfTime: false
  #startOfTime: false
  #constructedObjectId: "00000000000001160000000000000000"
  -clock: null
  #localMonthsOverflow: null
  #localYearsOverflow: null
  #localStrictModeEnabled: null
  #localHumanDiffOptions: null

}
